Mohawks Drop Group Title To Rockets;
Now Take Bye Into WOAA A' Finals
Mohawks face an uphill climb
.to regain the supremacy they
established over other ”A” clubs
in the WOAA Major Group
earlier In the Season.
|Still lacking the extra punch
and go they used to have, the
local braves dropped their cham
pionship eeries with Strathroy
over the weekend in home and
home clashes. Although their play
has improved, Mohawks’ two-
•week layoff left them out of con
dition for the Strathroy club
which had tangled in a tough
series with Milverton.
Now Mohawks face a similar
obstacle. They’ll remain idle for
at least a week while Strathroy
ond GodeTich battle it out in the
“A” semi-finals, 'Mohawks will
have to be in shape to beat the
winner in a best-of-seven series
for the WOAA Jnt, “A” title.

On Saturday
Mohawks lost the group cham
pionship in the final game 'Sat
urday night when they dropped
a 5-2 decision to Rockets on local
ice.
The visitors took a 1-0 lead in
the penalty-filled first period;
stretched their margin to 4-1 in
the second. Both teams scored a
sngle goal in the third.
Don Emms’ unassisted marker
in the third period was the extra
goal iStrathroy needed to discount
Mohawks’ protest of the first
game. If the W-O.A.A. upheld the
Tribe’s contention that the last
two Rocket goals on Thursday
night were illegal, iStrathroy
would have required Emms’ goal
to win the series.

Don Mayes and Carl 'Hatt led
the iStrathroy attack with two
goals each in the game here. John
Trendall and Larry Heideman
scored for Mohawks.
Survive Penalties
Both teams, particularly Mo
hawks, played effective defensive
hockey in the first period to ward
off attacks while they were short-
handed. Mohawks were short two
men for three and one-half min
utes; they suffered six penalties
to Rockets’ four,
iStrathroy took a 1-0 lead in
the first period but oddly enough
the goal didn’t come when Mo
hawks were being penalized. Carl
Hatt knocked in a pass-out from
•Gaudette at 11.08. The Tribe
missed a number of- scoring op
portunities.
Junior Barash set up Rockets’
second goal at 4.48 of the second
period. He outskated Mohawk de
fence for the puck behind ,the
Exeter net and fired it out front
to Don .Mayes. Emms received an
assist on the play.

after Barry Doak went to the bin
for a cheap interference penalty.

shot into the twine ' *

IDoak received a __ ............
misconduct, the only major pen
alty of the game, for yelling at
the referee from the penalty box.
Mayes counted his second goal
when Barash and Dwyer were
cooling off in the .box. Emms
broke away with only Wiese back
and passed out to Mayes in the
clear at 11.26.

he didn’t have the difficult shots
to stop that iBaker did.
Mohawks missed Earl Barton

ing behind 2-1, widened it to
4-2 in the second.
Mohawks scored early in the
third to take a .three-goal edge
before the Rookets started to
roll. The Exeter cliib still led
6-4 at the 15-minute mark but
the ‘braves tired fast and Strath
roy swarmed around the Exeter
net in the final five minutes.
The two disputed goals came
at 19.03 and 19.58. Exeter time
keeper Ross Taylor claimed the
clock had actually reached the
20-minute mark when the of
ficial timekeeper ruled it was
19 minutes. Taylor’ also claimed
the final goal was scored two
seconds after the minute.
Pictuire of the clock showed
the time was one minute and five
seconds after when the game had
stopped. The Strathroy official
claimed he touched the wrong
button and set the clock ahead
after the game was over.
Referees took 30 minutes to
come to a decision in regard to
the time, When they decided to
count both goals on the official
timekeeper’s advice, they at
tempted to stage a faceoff at
centre ice but were howled oft
iby the crowd.
Larry Heid eman starred for
Mohawks with three goals. Don

Don Mayes and Carl Hatt
